Adina of Elysium William J Ryan

Adina of Elysium is fictional story is based on historical information about two green children found wandering in a town called Woolpit in England. I wrote this story using historical information found through my investigation. In a place called Elysium, where there is no war and the sun was low in the sky and the land was green all the time. Adina and her brother Mawukura were out moving their herd from field to field, when something spooks the herd. They follow the herd and wind up in a cave, waiting for what spooked them to leave. When finally they emerge from the cave, they find themselves in a foreign land. It's so bright that they could barely see what lay before them and so hot that Adina thought she would burn. When her eyes adjust a bit, she sees a dead barren land and assumes it's the land of death. Our green children have to try to adjust to this land of death, for they don't know if they will ever find their way home again.
